Client Satisfaction

I just had to write and tell you that the day after my massage with you proved amazing! It was the first day in a month that my left leg was not hurting down the entire leg and causing me to limp! Wow! I really needed that stretching and psoas work. Thanks so much for the difference you make in the world. My world.

George’s defining message to patients? “I will give you the most thorough treatment you have ever had.”
